Falling into the Dougie Hamilton trap???
Last years Flames were supposed to be a great Defensive force, not sure that happened. Was it Dougies fault? Probably not but still he was the player moved whether that be good or bad. Will the same happen for the Canes? |

the Kings adding Kovalchuk is a better add than the Flames adding Neal |

Ducks will be no worse than 3rd most likely 2nd. |

T-shackles talking dirty again I see ❤️ In my unbiased opinion though, I do see the two NY teams st the bottom (for obvious reasons) and NJ missing the cut. Hall can’t backpack that lineup to the playoffs again.
However, I’d have my Canes at 5th in the metro and the Panthers getting a wildcard spot :/ |

Predictions are awesome - means the season is near
In the Atlantic I could see Panthers getting that 3rd spot (or a wildcard spot). They should have a good season and will get alot of points againts Mtl, Ott and Det (they always give Tampa a good match aswell). The matchups with Boston will be crucial for them. I think they can go out of their regularseason series ahead and Boston is alot more vulnerable to injurys on their top guys.
In the Metro I am not sold on Canes just yet. They have disapointed me to many times to predict being higher then Flyers, Caps and Devils. Im putting Flyers in my top3 and any of Caps, Canes, Devils in the spots after.
Central we are on the same page, but I dont think Avs will finish last, especially if Crawford cant play. Then the Hawks are in for a long season.
Pacific I dont agree with you. Sharks and Flames should get in but I dont think Vegas will. Alot of teams has improved their rosters, the Knights didnt really (they replaced what they lost).
Ducks, Kings, Knights, Yotes and Oilers will fight for the last PO/WC-spots and it could go either way. The only team that should be counted out is the Nucks. |

I also think Florida could surprise some people. It all depends on Lou.
I also really like the Bruins team. I know they're rather highly touted as 3rd in that division, but I think they could do even better, which is saying something.
What a feast/famine division. |

Avs 7th in the division? Come on, Hawks are going to be a disaster again with that roster and they dont have a goalie wiht Crow still being uncertain.
You think Cam Ward will save them?
Plus Avs probably have the 3rd best goalie tandem in that division after the Preds and Jets. Please adjust based on the Fatmarsh Backness Power Rankings |

I think he's 100% correct.
I don't see any way that the Ducks miss the playoffs, unless Gibson misses most of the season and so does Getzlaf. |

Agreed. Adding Steel and Terry will be huge for them. |

Man, the Central is just so hard to predict. It's not really about them being 7th, it's about me not wanting to put other teams in 7th. Could easily see them finishing higher

It is, but I really do believe they have a better Goalie combo than the Blues, Wild, Hawks, and Stars right now. And their D stack up with those teams as well.
Their foward groups are young and unproven compared to those teams but I still would probably take the Avs D Pairings with their Goalie tandem over the majority of them |

Zack Smith on Waivers. Was not expecting that. I wonder if he'll be claimed. |
